About Montana Rescue Mission
Montana Rescue Mission is a nonprofit located in Billings, Montana. Here, people who are experiencing hunger or homelessness can take shelter and find nourishment in a warm, safe, and supportive environment.

The organization also offers multiple programs, including sober living apartments, day treatment, outpatient therapy, peer support and case management for people facing addiction. They welcome all people in need and don’t turn away those who aren’t ready to commit to sobriety.
Personalized case management
When you arrive at Montana Rescue Mission, you’ll connect with a case manager. This case manager will help you access necessary resources, including shelter and medical care. If you decide to enter treatment they’ll devise a personalized plan based on your goals.
Sober living in the heart of Big Sky Country
One of Montana Rescue Mission’s newest programs is the Mission Apartments, which opened in fall 2024 in downtown Billings. The apartments offer people in recovery the opportunity to utilize the skills they’ve gained in drug rehab to live independently in secure, stable and community centered housing.
People in recovery tend to be quite vulnerable, particularly if they are also facing issues like housing and financial insecurity. These apartments provide a safety net to support folks on their path to lasting health and wellbeing.
Giving you the tools to flourish
If you have trouble meeting your basic needs, you may not have had the opportunity to obtain life skills in areas like personal finance management, computer use, and employment readiness.
Not having these skills may inhibit your ability to build a stable future. Through the Mission Academy, a residential educational program, and internship opportunities, Montana Rescue Mission can offer you the tools you need to prosper.

There is no help with anything here they are short staffed and even though your supposed to be clean here no one is clean. The food here is mid not good they serve expired food. The bathrooms are dirty and not maintained properly. There is bed bugs in other dorms. There can only be 38 men and 20 women. If your a parent with kids it's better that way. If your on your own it's a horrible experience there's no foundation here . You can't bring food or bags in. You have to carry everything In a clear bag or just hold onto it. There's no specific ppl that are here it's all just randoms. They kick you out by 8 am and you have to come back between 3pm -5pm but since space is limited your better off coming here early and lining up. They have a vending machine but you have to eat what you get in the cafeteria which is just dumb. It's just food. The downstairs stinks like B.O AND just putrid. At least you get a roof over your head and a place to sleep. But you can't trust anybody here. I got kicked out from upstairs because of suspected marijuanna use but someone randomly smoked in the bathroom and me and my brother got kicked out for something we never did who is actually that dumb to smoke inside building where there is no smoking. I didn't get a chance to do anything the ppl here just assume whoever they want without real proof. The people that work here are either power tripping or just only care for themselves. Your not treated with equality and respect here. Even if you have integrity they don't see that. Your better off living in your parents basement. Don't come here it's buns low-key unless you have absolutely no where else to go. There are some kind genuine staff , that get taken advantage of.
It's a shelter... Not much to be said...
Is this a prison? Or a men’s shelter. A shelter is a place homeless people come to feel safe. Some of us actually have stuff we want to go do. Some of us just can’t sleep through the whole night. I should be able to go out and do what I want. Not only that but the entire downstairs smells like nasty feet it’s actually starting to make me sick. All the cops inside and out make it feel like a prison. I can’t get to go and get outside food or drinks which is stupid. I don’t understand it tbh. Not all of us are alcoholics. I don’t even drink alcohol. I’m not even supposed to be in this situation

Other Forms of Payment
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.
Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.
Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

Levels of Care
Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.
Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) are for those who want or need a very structured treatment program but who also wish to live at home and continue with certain responsibilities (such as work or school). IOP substance abuse treatment programs vary in duration and intensity, and certain outpatient rehab centers will offer individualized treatment programs.
Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).
Treatments
Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.
Programs
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
Clinical Services
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
